Egg collection

For couples undergoing IVF or ICSI treatment we will need to manually collect eggs produced by your ovaries.

Egg donation

You can use donated eggs if you do not have any eggs of your own or they are very low in numbers. Donated eggs are fertilised in our specialist laboratory with your partner’s sperm, then transferred to you.

For some couples egg sharing is an option which can allow them to help another couple who cannot produce their own eggs whilst receiving fertility treatment themselves.
